最新报道:BitMine Immersion, a Texas-based Bitcoin mining firm, is pivoting to Ethereum staking with a new $15 million investment from Thiel Capital and other backers. The company, which previously focused on immersion-cooled Bitcoin mining, will now allocate 50% of its resources to Ethereum staking while maintaining its Bitcoin operations. CEO Chad Harris cited Ethereum's lower energy consumption and the upcoming Dencun upgrade as key factors in the strategic shift. The move comes as BitMine expands its infrastructure with new data centers in Ohio and Pennsylvania, aiming to capitalize on both proof-of-work and proof-of-stake blockchain ecosystems.
